While a larger mower is obviously the choice for large areas what do you do for the smaller pieces of grassed land that you can't reach? Is a strimmer good enough?
Small spots are great for line trimmers, either gas or electric... If you have a lot of smallish spaces a very narrow electric push mower can be handy... :smile:KennyV
I have a very small and lightweight hover mower that I use for the smaller areas and it's very easy to use. It's the big field out back that causes me problems!
Thanks for the ideas and advice. If we are going to be mowing around caravans I will need something lightweight and easy to use. I never thought of a push mower. I suppose strimmers are better for really small areas. I want something I can leave on site and it not be a major attraction to the light fingered .
We had a battery powered Black & Decker mower while we were moving around a lot with the military. The battery was rechargable of course. It was a pretty compact machine and we never had to deal with gasoline, gas cans, oil. No cord to risk cutting. I highly recommend one.
This is an interesting thread. Ride-on mowers have no way around grasses that grow in between roots of trees that protrude. In this case, yes, trimmers would help. For grasses on corners, I think we can afford a little discomfort using hedge shears.
